if your lookin for a great book jessica by bryce courtney is it. its set in the australian outback and its about a tomboy named jessica and her life, its a drama set in the victorian era

if you dont like the sound of it i dont blame you im not good at explaining things but do yourself a favour and read it

I recently read Jessica and thought it was excellent. I'm really looking forward to the mini-series, which is on ten this year. I just hope they stick to the book and don't change too much around.

I've read it and would recommend it. It's really interesting and has a brilliant storyline.

I'm curious, why do you hate Bryce Courtenay?

Jessica ? i've read all his books and absolutely love em, but Jessica was too sad, so sad that i couldn't finish it !!!!!!!!
i do recommend Tandia, and Power of One, it's sequel, now that is a great story

 

[jay9nine]

the power of one is great, has some slow bits but the story line is good

 

[Serpentia]

I must say that Bryce Courtney, while he writes well, creating a lot of empathy, is very self involved.

After reading April's fools day, which is a touching novel, I realised how obsessed he is with his own life. I guess as an author that is his prerogative, but still.........

Power of One is very good though!

 

[lazybum]

April fool's day was really good but sooooo touching!!! I jst picked up Mathew Flinder's cat at the local bookstore for $15 and am really excited to read it (have to finishh anna karenina first!) anybody read it? what's it like?

 

[~ForAGoodCause~]

i just finished reading Jessica. It was a great book overall, but i must say the ending was a little dissapointing. I was expecting revenge, which didnt come.

hmm mini-series? il have to watch it, however i got a feeling it wont be that good..

I SAW BRYCE =D
at some leadership conference earlier this year!
HIS real cool.

Bryce Courtney spoke at a Youth Leadership forum i attended as was very entertaining! He had the everyone captivated for a good 45min.

 

[dark`secrets]

um yeah youth leadership conference,he was scary though. Being a man at his age and jumping, rolling around and around *freaks out*

Is Four Fires any good?

I think my fave is Thommo & Hawk, then Tandia-but this had some parts that I did not like esp. the ending!!!!

 

[astro]

is solomon's song and four fires good....'Jessica' was so sad...

 

[rumour]

I didn't like Solomon's Song as much as T&H, but it is alright, I just didn't like the end.
